Oh, I see, it's either one or another :-) Personally, I prefer when
subsystem is delimited with ':' so if we were to change them all I'd
prefer the "KVM: switch to using PV TLB flush" (__send_ipi_mask()
style). But this looks more like a separate patch idea, we can discuss
our personal preferences there :-)
